GUEST,elle Songs about getting really old - 2 (95* d) RE: Songs about getting really old - 2 06 Jul 04


The title of the Bryan Bowers recording is "Stately Mansions" the first line of which is

I was once a stately mansion

The last line is

I'm just an old wood house down the road

It's been about 20 years since I've heard the song and well--- memory fades with age---I don't remember which recording it's from, I'll see if I can get more info.
John Prine recorded "Hello In There" the refrain goes-

Old trees just keep growing stronger
And old rivers get wilder every day
But old people just get lonesome
Waiting for someone to say
Hello in there
Hello
